When you have a minute, I will be grateful to you if you can post the draft of the email which you sent. By PD is beginning of January 03 and getting a screen will certainly give some piece of mind.

Thanks for your help

Labor certification can not be transfered or sold .
It does not belong to employee. Employer can only do substitution
(to fire original person and to hire new one and to use old Labor Cert)

Labor Cert is the property of your old employer not yours.

The only option for you to save your PD and Labor is to stay with your old employer, to be on payroll and physically to work for the new one.

Using other words you can have corp to corp agreement between employers
(of course if they are agree). The new one can pay your salary + taxes to the old one and you work for the new one and get salary from the old one.



It looks like someone already answered your question.
 
I’m confused and I need your suggestions…

Gurus/All,

Yesterday, I request a screenshot and to my surprise I noticed something puzzling in the bottom of the screenshot. If you look into the screenshot that I have enclosed for your kind perusal, you should see a new section with the
‘Data Review’ title. Underneath it says ‘Existence Check: Failed’ but my case status is listed as ‘Final Review’. What should I do?

Thanks in advance.

Eb3 becoming Current - Predicted to be happening in October

Did you guys see this. Surprising!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Early next month, September, DOS will release the October 2005 Visa Bulletin and people will see the impact of new fiscal year visa number allocation on EB-3 visa number availability. As the State Department has already predicted, EB-3 visa number may become current for world-wide, and even for China and India, some numbers may become available inasmuch as their priority dates are older than the new cut-off dates which the October 2005 Visa Bulletin will establish.
Report indicates that the Service Centers have been continuously processing EB-485 cases even though their visa numbers are currently unavailable and they cannot decide the cases. They are getting ready for October 1, 2005! No wonder why the EB-3 I-485 applicants have been receiving biometic appointment letters en masse lately. This is certainly not a bad news at all.
Here are a few pointers which may help the people who have been anxiously waiting for the EB-3 visa numbers becoming available for them:
First, when you receive the biometric scheduling, you should never reschedule it as it can cause a delay in processing your EB-3 I-485 applications. For Indians and Chinese, you may learn that such rescheduling will turn out be one of the most serious mistakes you would ever have made in the immigration journey.
Second, when RFE is received for either I-140 or EB-3 I-485 applications, you should send in responses as promptly as possible so that your cases will get ready for adjudication when the EB-3 visa numbers will become availabe on October 1 and thereafter.
Third, you should not do anything that can trigger transfer of EB-3 I-485 applications to the local district offices for interview or issuance of RFE. Once the cases are transferred to the local offices, the cases are subject to the local offices processing queue and decisions can be delayed substantially. Same will be true with the RFE. Those who have changed employers using AC 21 180-rule may want to assess the advantages and disadvantages of proactively reporting their employment changes with the help of their legal counsels.
Fourth, you should not do anything that will either cause a delay in completion of the name checks or trigger trasfer of the case to local district offices for clarification of issues that surfaced through the name checks for fact findings through the interviews. Minor violations of criminal law or local ordinance that require fingerprinting may trigger transfer of the cases to local offices, no matter whether it involves a deportable offense or not. Exit from the U.S. may also be reported by BCP inspectors through the database and the surrendered I-94 documents, which can cause some delays in adjudications, even though in most cases international travelling should not and have not affected adjudication of I-485 applications.
If you have any violation of status in whatever forms after filing I-485 applications, your contact with the agencies through extension or change of nonimmigrant status should be minimized as their findings of violation of nonimmigrant status post-filing of I-485 will seriously affect your eligibility for adjustment of status
 
Only if you are not from India or China. If you are from India or China then do not be under false hope.

It's certified.....If mine is certified, everyone's should

Guys I received a letter from DFLC Back Log Processing Center stating that my Labor Application is certified.

I was copied on the letter that was sent to my Employer and my Lawyers.

My Priority date was December 26 2002.
Went to Federal Processing in Nov 2003.
Got the 45-Day letter in May
Approved: July 13 but I received this letter only yesterday.

I am a Software Engineer.

All of you folks have been great. We stood and will continue to stand, hand in hand in anticipation of good tidings.

I serioulsy believe the process is getting streamlined. I keep seeing some names being cried out like Icarus!, GP111! You guys are doing a great job of giving hope. Hey, hope gets you a long way.

Peace out - Frankappa

Labor Substitution

I am already into my 7th year in my H1B and I was wondering if I can change my job. The new employer has a labor and is willing to do a substitution. My current labor is pending with the Dallas Backlog Center and the PD is 07/03. I am expecting to get that certified within 3 months but if can get the substituted labor, I can apply for 140 immediatly after getting my H1 transferred and then apply for 485 whenever that becomes current. Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

I have sent you personal message.
 
Be careful

I would suggest that you wait for your exisiting labor to get cleared since with a substitute labor you would end up losing your old PD when you file I-140. If you are a EB3 case then you are talking about another 3-4 years before you can file 485 (thanks to retrogression). But if you a EB2 case then it might be helpful till it retrogresses which is possible in Oct'05.

Use your judgement wisely... good luck !!

EB3 Labor / 485 filing

GC_from_NJ, What makes you say that 485 filing for EB3 will take another 3-4 years. Just curious because of my PD : 4/30/2004, EB3/CA/RIR, still waiting for 45DL.

I read in this forum, DBEC is processing 2 months every month and is currently processing 3/2003, so I estimate another 6-7 months for my labor to be cleared and then hopefully can file 485 by Oct-2006 and I complete 6th year in Dec-2006.

Am I being realistic ???

thanks,

Response from BEC

My lawyer got this reply/screen shot data from BEC :
Processing Type: RIR
Case Status: Data Review
Case Source: Region
Case Number: D-05217-8xxxx.

Although my case was still stuck at SWA(one of those enterject cases with TWC) and was a TR/Non RIR case.
Can anybody calarify what Case Status and processing type mean in this case? Is processing type as RIR an error on BEC data entry part?
 
MS+0 yr experience

Hi, all

Does anybody know how BECs are processing the RIR cases which require MS+0 yr experience and had made it to the regional offices before going to BECs? Do they approve them right away or ask to retest the job market? Can we see a pattern now since so many cases have been adjudicated?

Thanks.
